More About Solar System Hike at Eagle Creek Park
Hike a scale model representation of the solar system and marvel at how small we really are and the vastness of space! To reach the hike, follow the signs that begin directly across from the front entry of the Earth Discovery Center. You can get as far as Saturn by hiking the easy “Pin Oak Loop” marked by the yellow leaf sign, but if you want to hike all the way to dwarf planet Pluto you’ll need to follow the Orange Trail for nearly 3/4 mile, just past Eagle Beach Drive!
Free with park admission*. The hike is available March 9th-April 9th during Eagle Creek Park hours 7am-8:30pm, seven days a week.
